Everyone with car knowledge had doubts about the time nissan claimed to have posted around the Nurburgring using what they called a "stock GT-R".
The power to weight ratio just didn't add up to the lap time that Nissan claimed the car could do.
Nissan said the stock GT-R posted a lap time of 7:29 and again.. it was supposedly a bone stock model. At the time this was a big deal as this was a record lap time for a production car.
Now there have been two other lap times set using GT-R's taken off of showroom floors. The times posted as follows.. 7:54 and 7:56. Is this finally proof that nissan used a tuned up ringer to set the record lap time?
Here is a list of Nurburgring production car lap times..
